Areas where Shaivism is notable for practice is Southeast Asia, Especially Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia.

Aghoris engage in post-mortem riruals, they often dwell in Charnel grounds, have been witnessed smearing cremation ashes on their bodies,and have been known to use bones from human corpses for crafting skull bowls and jewelry. Due to their practices that are contradictory to orthodox Hinduism, they are generally opposed.

The Aghoris trace their origin to Kina Ram, an ascetic who is said to have lived 150 years, dying during the second half of the 18th century.

An aghori believes in geeting into total darkness by all means, and then getting into light or self realizing. Though this is a different approach from other Hindus sects, they believe it to be effective. They are infamously known for their rituals that include such as Shava samskara where they worship incorporating the use of a corpse as the altar to invoke the mother goddess in her form as smashan Tara.
